St. Maarten - low plane landings and jet blasts
Riot:
I've seen a video of a guy being sucked into the jet, he looked like a jelly ragdoll or his body didn't have bones. Scary stuff, I never want to be an engineer on an aircraft carrier. It was on Worlds most extreme videos or something.

I've seen that before. It's his own dumbass fault for standing next to a jet engine while it's starting up.

Similar video: Saba Island is an island not too far from St. Martin, and an airline called WinAir flies DHC-6 Twin Otters and BN2 Islander aircraft from St. Martin to islands like these. These are the only two aircraft allowed into the airport because they are both lightweight STOL aircraft. Saba is home to the shortest runway in the world, clocking in at 1300 feet (the average international airport runway is 10,000+ feet) with each end of the runway going over cliffs into the ocean, yet there have been no accidents at the airport (the pilots have to be highly certified).

You do realize that it's the Dutch spelling because it's the Dutch part of the island?
